More Flies than
Ever This Season
Because of the
Mild Winter : : z
More Living Flies Mean
More DEAD Children
—Georgian Editorial, April 19.
Did you read tliis editorial? It
touches what is of vital Interest, not
only to Atlantans, but to every man
and woman./
No well-informed person needs to
be told how flies spread disease. The
fly seeks the vilest tilth to deposit
its eggs, disease germs stick to its
feet, and having laid its eggs and
provided for the next generation of
flies, ii hurries to your sugar bowl,
or your child's lace, and carries dis
ease germs wherever it goes.
When you kill one fly early in the j
season, you kill vast swarms of the
dangerous pests unborn.
